a new proposal in physics supposes that the second law of thermodynamics -- entropy always increases -- can become reversed in certain situations, and that when this occurs reality shifts to accommodate the change in such a way that the observer perceives and remembers it proceeding logically. to me this is a really convoluted way of saying all happening is a simultaneous concurrence, and that "time" as we experience it is merely a perceptual illusion. i believe we have heretofore untold powers to shape reality that science is now beginning to uncover through "creating" exotic states of matter and energy, and it's the principle i just described that's at work.
here's the link to the article i read about it in:
Physicist Proposes Solution to Arrow-of-Time Paradox
it's all about perception man, that's the brass tacks of it
